Jake Paul's $250,000 tattoo 'magically' disappears before Tommy Fury fight

Jake Paul's $250,000 tattoo promoting a vodka company appeared to magically disappear ahead of his fight with Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia on Sunday night.

The American finished his training camp for the Middle Eastern showdown in Dubai, and was visited by DJ Charlie Sloth for a promotional video in which he had a bottle of AU Vodka tattooed on his arm. Paul is known for his ink, but had a notable blank spot on his white arm which was filled with the bottle.

But eagle-eyed fans have noticed that during his fight with Fury, the spot was bare again despite a promotional video showing him having the ink done in Dubai. He could be seen winging punches during the eight round contest, but there was no remnants of the tattoo, for which he was paid $250,000, on his arm.

One wrote on Twitter that "Tommy Fury must have given Jake Paul one hell of a punch last night... His tattoo fell off." Another joked, "Imagine being hit that hard, your AU Vodka 'tattoo' falls off." One other added that "Jake Paul's tattoo did the exact same thing the labels on their bottles do, insane attention to detail in my opinion."

Paul recently met up with popular UK DJ Sloth, who promised to gift him $250,000 if he tattooed a bottle of AU Vodka on his arm during a video which was shared to their social media pages. Sloth is a co-owner of the vodka brand along with Charlie Morgan, a former football ballboy who has become an influencer.

In the video, a tattoo artist can be seen stencilling the design, which shows a bottle of AU vodka, onto Paul's upper arm before tattooing it on. Paul then proudly shows off his new ink, and joked with Sloth that he probably would have done it for free, to which the DJ jokes he should give the cash and its golden briefcase back.

Paul had vowed to stop Fury in the grudge fight on Sunday, but was unable to land his big shots and ultimately fell to a disappointing split decision. The Brit outboxed him from the jump and managed to leave the Diriyah Arena in the early hours of Monday morning with the decision.

The pair had agreed to a bet where Paul would double Fury's reported £3million purse if he managed to win, with the American even offering him a contract. But it didn't end up getting signed, and the Brit likely didn't receive the further payout as he headed back to the UK.
